Robust and Sleek Design

The phone case in the kit is made of high-quality PC material and features a sleek finish with black leather and a CNC-machined lens ring. The MagSafe function is fully usable, meaning you can use magnetic accessories and wireless charging without any issues. The base of the grip also has a 1/4" 20 threaded socket for tripods and extension poles, increasing its versatility.

External Recording with microSD

The built-in microSD slot allows you to record directly onto a memory card with USB 3.1 speeds of up to 312 MB/s. Support for UHS I and UHS II microSDXC, SDHC, and SD cards enables you to store high-resolution images and videos. For video recording, the kit offers ProRes and HEVC, including 4K recording at 30 fps and cinematic 24 fps, although external recording is not available at 4K 60 fps and higher.

PGYTECH Pro Imaging App

The accompanying app gives you access to film filters and a retro interface, providing manual control over shutter speed, ISO, and white balance. This app also enhances image processing to reduce the excessive sharpening that the iPhone sometimes applies, resulting in more natural outcomes. Additionally, you can use stylish watermarks and adjustable frames to refine your images.

Expandable System

With the included lens adapter ring, the kit is prepared to use PGYTECH's telephoto lens and filter adapter rings, sold separately. This means you can expand the kit without having to replace the grip or case, making it a very cost-effective solution for anyone looking to grow in their creativity.
